Miley, a professional hacker, decided to attack a target organization's network.

According to CEH v13 Module 08: Sniffing, the attack described is a classic example of ARP spoofing/poisoning which leads to Man-in-the-Middle (MITM) scenarios. In such attacks, a malicious actor sends forged ARP responses to associate their MAC address with the IP address of a target system, redirecting traffic through their machine.

Tool Used: BetterCAP

BetterCAP is a powerful, modular MITM framework.

It can:

Perform ARP spoofing

Intercept and manipulate HTTP/HTTPS traffic

Modify packets in real-time

Carry out credential harvesting and session hijacking

Miley's actions match the default behavior of BetterCAP during an ARP spoofing attack:

Spoof ARP to redirect traffic.

Intercept and analyze (or manipulate) traffic.

Option Clarification:

A. Gobbler: An older ARP tool, but mostly for ARP scanning, not modern MITM attacks.

B. KDerpNSpoof: Incorrect or misspelled; not a recognized CEH tool.

C. BetterCAP: Correct – used for ARP spoofing and traffic manipulation.

D. Wireshark: Passive sniffer; cannot perform ARP spoofing or MITM.
